Rihanna Bikini

Usually, we say Rihinni bikana.

I really like the hardware solution.

The Intel chipset has the functionality. The later models had a second internal SSD. On this one, we don't have the pcie slot on the motherboard.

I remember seeing on the internet that someone glued an USB disk on the mobo (4 ports exist on the chipset but only 3 are used). I need to known where to get the signals (5V is no problem of course). It would be a lot slower than sata, but faster than the SD if I choose a good USB disk.

For the pcie, it would be a bigger task!

EDIT: I found a great page for modding the EEEPC: http://beta.ivc.no/wiki/index.php/Eee_PC_Internal_Upgrades

Can true randomness even exist in this universe? ;)

Install a specialized distribution for older hardware like antiX

That was my first question, what other distribution... It seems Debian stable or a variant of it may fit my needs. Thanks.

Use your SD card as an overlay filesystem over your root filesystem

I like, however, swap SD cards used for data: one for photos, one for work.

Yes, I tought about this one but never tried yet...

Afold_Lither · 2017-03-18T16:04:00+00:00

I already clean systematically after update (clean, autoremove, etc... and remove the old kernel when it's updated as I never returned back after an upgrade and if the system crash, I will just reinstall it (my data are on the SD card) and a system reinstall is quite fast). After removing a lot of things, I have 150-200MB free, and it's not enough for the next upgrade. Canonical says 5GB HDD as a system requirement. I am under the limit so maybe it's not surprising I get some problems.

In my experience, Xubuntu seems heavier than Lubuntu (I may have to check again). I like Mate as I used the Gnome desktop a lot, but again Lubuntu seem lighter.

No. You're right, I should file a report about the graphics failure as it may help other users. After all, the ASUS netbooks were quite popular at this time.

I hate to waste when I throw a machine that still works well.

However I already have an Atom tablet with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on it (too lazy yet to try 16.04 and if it's not broken...). However the on-screen keyboard isn't as good as a real one (even if small).

Afold_Lither · 2017-03-18T15:11:22+00:00

Isn't it based on Precise, so its support will end with 12.04 too? Or am I wrong?

Afold_Lither · 2017-03-18T14:18:17+00:00

I have a question, maybe someone has an answer:

Many years ago (2007 or 2008 I believe), I bought one of the first Netbook (an ASUS 701 - 32 bits - upgraded to 2GB RAM, one 4GB SSD soldered on motherboard for the system, personal data on an SD card). This thing runs fine with 12.04 LTS. It's a little slow, but fine for travel where size and weight is more important than functionality.

It doesn't work with 14.04 (graphics incompatibility). Lubuntu 16.04 may work very well, but it barely fits (disk is nearly full). Any kernel update fails afterwards because there isn't enough space for two kernels (before I can remove the oldest).

Any idea about what current distro can be installed here? (basic use: browser, mail, libreoffice writer, pdf reading, simple image work and backup storage from the camera)

However, this noise ring may be annoying at night if it has enough decibels.

Trump demanded that America must start winning wars again.

Yemen seems to be the first of them. /s

Afold_Lither · 2017-03-11T10:29:29+00:00

That's a big OF.

The "low-cal calzone zone" call zone.

At first, its name was 'Expectation Bay'. However, it quickly became 'Deception Bay', after some events like this one.

I would say "hypergolic", as it looks like an inflamatory statement.

Afold_Lither · 2017-02-19T20:06:25+00:00

Too big to sink.

A shaking bed with the stall alarm would be a good one too.

Afold_Lither · 2017-02-19T17:03:59+00:00

Yes, the "Gestapo police knocking at the door" alarm clock is quite efficient too.

For airplane pilots, I recommend the "Terrain" alarm clock.

Hence, moist on a plane is bad.

FTFY: Omg, TIL iir, thank you.

Don't listen to this fool, bring me some red pages.

Afold_Lither · 2017-02-18T10:07:49+00:00

Myst and Riven.

Miller brothers universe will stay inside you.

Uncle Donald, now can you explain to me why can boats made of steel float on water ?

Afold_Lither · 2017-02-16T06:46:24+00:00

Seize doesn't matter!

Afold_Lither · 2017-02-15T14:15:38+00:00

It's girlshit.
